Pupils from P5-7 boarded the bus this sunny Wednesday morning to head to Green Valley for the Rhins Primary Cross Country Challenge!
A LONG overdue event, there was such an air of excitement as the schools met up!
Carys and Brandon got together to write up this blog report – Breagh lent a hand too. Read all about their morning below…
Cross Country was at Green Valley. There is lots of other stuff at Green Valley too like the driving range, cafe, bar, function room and golf course.
We had to leave at 9:30am from the school as the buses needed to do double runs between schools. There was 15 people at cross country from each school. The Active Schools team led us all in a warm-up then our first race was at 10:45am.
The hardest part about cross country is the actual running but we all kept on going and had a great time. All the schools were cheering their team mates on.
Every one did one race – P5s did 1/2 mile and P6 and P7 had to do a mile around the Green Valley course.
Everyone took part and did really well! In fact, Fraser was 4th for the P6 boys and Murray was 2nd for the P7 boys!
Thank you so much to Alison Murray, the Active Schools team and Green Valley for hosting this great event!
